[BL] His Enemy’s Life Became His To Guard


Synopsis 


Seven years ago, Ethan watched his family die in flames—an attack ordered by one name everyone feared: Logan, a ruthless corporate ruler whose power crushed anyone who crossed him.

Ethan disappears and rebuilds himself in the shadows, driven by a single purpose—revenge.

To get close enough to kill Logan, he becomes his personal bodyguard.

He returns under a false identity and infiltrates Logan’s inner circle as his personal bodyguard, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. 

But the longer he works by Logan’s side, the clearer it becomes that Logan’s life is in danger—and that he can trust no one.

He begins to realize that Logan isn’t the ruthless monster the rumors described.

He’s surrounded by enemies and  trapped in a violent power struggle. 

But how could Ethan believe this when he had seen it with his own eyes—his parents burning, and the person responsible claiming they were carrying out Logan’s orders for failing to uphold a deal?

Revenge should have been the only thing on his mind. Yet no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t stop the conflicting feelings stirring in his chest.

Then came the day Logan appeared before him, bloodied, trembling, and teary-eyed, looking at him with a trust that terrified Ethan.

“You’re the only one I can trust to protect me,” Logan whispered, his voice cracking. “Promise me, Ethan… please. Promise you’ll stay by my side!”

Ethan’s heart clenched. How could he make such a promise?

The very reason he had come was to have his revenge—to kill the man who had destroyed his family.

And yet… looking at Logan now, bloodied, trembling, and pleading, something inside him wavered.

Could Logan really have killed his parents?

Could he trust himself to protect the enemy he had sworn to destroy?

I cracked my eyes open just a little and immediately regretted it.


The sun slammed straight into my face like it had a personal grudge.


I groaned slightly and turned my head away, squeezing my eyes shut.


My head felt like someone had used it for batting practice.


I squeezed my eyes shut again, waited a second, then tried opening them slower this time so the light wouldn't feel like it was trying to kill me.


When the room finally came into focus, I let out a tired breath.


"Of course," I muttered under my breath.


This was the spot they always dragged me to.


At this point, I could probably draw a map of the place from memory.


I would had easily be able to find them and ambush them because I already knew the location. 


But it sounded like way too much work. I am not as jobless as them. 


did these bastards really have to knock me out every single time?
